I like the aquascape. The islands are nice to break things up and provide opens area for fish to swim.
 
I agree. Looks pretty nice.
 
I like it. The rock lay out is great, but those damsels are going to be hell to catch if you decide you dont want them.

I have two right now that I just want to squish, but since my tomatos keep them in check now, I have forgone the idea of tearing out all the rock to catch them.

i am already trying to think about a plan. gonna be a problem.
 
The tank and setup is nice... I'm just curious how long it's been setup, because I don't see any carolline algae growth....
 
Is that just dead rock or base rock? The look now is so clean its almost appealing, but you will never maintain the rock and the sand being so clean, or the glass.

Its only been up for about 3 weeks. Though it never cycled. I guess because the LR was well seeded. Ammonia climbed the second day and that was it.
Now all my para meters are excellent.Except my Kh is a little high about 14dkh. I need it to drop to about 8/9dkh. Just not sure how to do that.

FLESHY..it's starting to dirty up now. The rock is covered in junk. I have a CUC workin pretty well in there. Blue-legs are all over the rock. I also have some nassarius and astre's workin in the sand and on the rock. Plus, a really cool emerald crab.
 
Blue legs, astreas, and nass's...thats my big three.

Gotta get more bluelegs. The triggers are looking fat, and I am starting to notice more and more empty shells in the sand. :D
